Colm McCarthy * Director

Colm McCarthy comes to Sherlock with an excellent background in
British Television Drama, having previously directed episodes of
Hustle, Murphy's Law, The Tudors, and Spooks, as well as the two
hour television film Endeavour - the prequel to Inspector Morse.
That piece of work proved such a success for producers Mammoth
Screen that a series of four further films were greenlit to
production, with Colm helming an additional episode.

Colm has already had his work on television screens in 2013 with
the broadcast of two episodes of the popular BBC drama Ripper
Street, and has directed the Steven Moffat scripted opening episode
of the second section of Doctor Who series seven - The Bells of St
John - which broadcast on March 30 2013 in the UK and USA. The
episode made considerable use of the iconic cityscape of modern day
London, which holds great promise for Colm's work on Sherlock
Series Three.

In 2010, Colm made his feature film directing debut with
Outcast, a Celtic legend based 'creature feature' horror featuring
James Nesbitt, with a further feature entitled Hidden Mountain
currently in development.
